Abstract
Performance-based seismic design is the basis of most new seismic design standards and specifications worldwide. In a performance-based seismic design, a performance objective consists of the specification of a performance level and a corresponding probability that this performance level may be exceeded. This study explored some probability information for seismic performance for reinforced concrete buildings and masonry buildings. The exceeding probabilities of various performance levels for reinforced concrete buildings and masonry buildings during their 50-year useful lives were investigated. Then, a probabilistic evaluation was performed for these buildings to examine the achievement of desired performance design objectives.
